Match the disorders in List I with their causes in List II and choose the correct option.
| List I | List II |
|---|---|
| (A) Thalassemia. | (I) non-disjunction of sex chromosomes. |
| (B) Sickle-cell anaemia. | (II) non-disjuction of 21st pair of chromosomes. |
| (C) Turner's Syndrome. | (III) Synthesising few globin molecules. |
| (D) Down's Syndrome. | (IV) synthesising an incorrectly functional globin. |
Options
- A(A) - (I), (B) - (II), (C) - (III), (D) - (IV).
- B(A) - (II), (B) - (IV), (C) - (I), (D) - (III).
- C(A) - (I), (B) - (II), (C) - (IV), (D) - (III).
- D(A) - (III), (B) - (IV), (C) - (I), (D) - (II).
Correct answer
D. (A) - (III), (B) - (IV), (C) - (I), (D) - (II).
Step-by-step solution
Thalassemia is a quantitative blood disorder that results in the synthesis of too few globin molecules. Thus, (A) matches (III).
Sickle-cell anaemia is a qualitative blood disorder that results in the synthesis of an incorrectly functioning globin molecule. Thus, (B) matches (IV).
Turner's Syndrome is caused by the absence of one of the X chromosomes (45X0 (trisomy of ), which occurs due to the non-disjunction of the st pair of chromosomes. Thus, (D) matches (II).
The correct matching is (A) - (III), (B) - (IV), (C) - (I), (D) - (II).
Answer: (A) - (III), (B) - (IV), (C) - (I), (D) - (II).
